A wonderful family day yesterday. Lovely but poignant. We all met on my eldest daughter, Lee's, family farm. We went there for family photos - our grandson Ed's girl friend is a wonderful photographer - and in a few days time she has to return home to Sweden. So all four of Lee's children were there and my youngest daughter, Marie and her 'partner", and Alex and myself.
It was a lovely sunny day, when we all assembled in the picturesque paddock full of trees and long grass and Anne snapped away as we wandered around, knee deep in the meadow grass, under the many trees, or sitting at the BBQ table. Anne got us doing crazy things like leaping into the air together (my feet actually never left the floor!) or running toward her through the grass.
Our 2 older grandchildren are leaving just after Anne, to go travelling (AND they hope) working in Europe. So before we left we toasted the three of them with champagne "Enjoy, learn, but please, one day, COME BACK!"
